A hymn to the Virgin Mary (HL, 2, p 142) invoking her sorrow
as she beheld the suffering and death of her son; no grief was keener, for no child was dearer. Caste parentis viscera
pena torquentur\ aspera
dum illum quem conceperant <conceperat>\
verbo perversi verberant.
Illum ligant <tractant> at\rociter
cedunt cruentant acriter
hec <hoc> audientis\ anxie
matris crescunt angustie.
Sed dum <cum> ad\ mortem ducitur
heu <hunc> mater plorans sequitur
pectus\ perfundens fletibus
afficiens verberibus.
In cruce dum\ extenditur
videris mater quod moritur
dolor nullus\ amarior,
nam nullus [nulla] proles carior.
Sit laus\ honor devocio, et cetera.
Versus.
Erat iuxta crucem virgo Maria.\
Et lacrime eius in maxillis eius.
Antiphona Virgo.
Psalmus [Canticle, Luke, 1:46].\ Magnificat anima mea dominum.\
Antiphona.
Virgo passo filio
penam mortis iudicat
sed in ple\bis medio
contra mortem publicat
urgente supplicio\
voces quam mestas repplicat,
que quondam pre gaudio\
cecinit magnificat.
